Dr12volt1338 116 Posted December 11, 2011 I would like to see a Thank you button on the forum instead of everyone typing in a thanks. I know that its more personable when we all type in thanks but on the other hand looking at a topic and seeing it has 147 replies and opening it to sort through 90 of them that are just thank yous to get to actual information can be a pain at times. It may also cut down on space used by the forum and speed some of the searches up. I know I like getting a thanks every now and then on information I give but I would feel just as good about getting a hit on a thumbs up button or something to that nature.

MZ SKEETER 4,708 Posted December 11, 2011 isn't that what the check mark "LIKE THIS" button is for? Which is on every post.... It even shows who clicked it... I consider that a thumbs up.. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dr12volt1338 116 Posted December 11, 2011 Yeah after I posted that I realized that we could just do that..... So much for not wasting forum space..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rodger 527 Posted December 11, 2011 Thanks for the suggestion though ... hehe . I understand what you are saying about many posts just saying thanks , but that is the nicest problem ever dealt with , isn't it ? There is a X that pops up sometimes under that like button .. anybody know if that is just to dis-like a post you previously liked or is that like giving a negative b-4 The member who has 322 negatives has not gotten anymore negatives , so it seems the negative voting thing is gone ?

MZ SKEETER 4,708 Posted December 11, 2011 lol JUST FOR the heck of it..... I tried to see what it would do with my own post above. I liked my own post.. but on your own post, it does not give the X below after click LIKE THIS I don't want to hit the X for somebody else. I don't know what it will do. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BannerJohn 1,324 Posted December 11, 2011 That 'x' is for the signature. It allows you to ignore either the poster's sig or ALL sigs. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rodger 527 Posted December 11, 2011 Cool , Is there an easy way to restore that ? I tried it on a member & want to restore it back . Seems the negative voting been eliminated , has it ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BannerJohn 1,324 Posted December 11, 2011 I can't see any way to undo it. I do believe the negative voting has been eliminated. Good thing,too. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rodger 527 Posted December 11, 2011 Edit ; in " profile " , under " settings " , there is an " ignore preference " where you can set or reverse ignoring ; signatures , posts or messages . Is there a speallring check available I need to stay in practice in case Nuke stops back in . 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rodger 527 Posted December 12, 2011 Naa , not a bad subject & it has come up several times already in the last 4 years I have been here . I am sure some subjects are humorous to members who have been here a long time , I know they are to me . I have a HUGE sense of humor though . I think any subject can be discussed without drama . Killing time is what many are doing here anyway . I surf while watching tv etc . I like this forum because it helped me so much & the atmosphere is kept mature . It took ALOT for me to negative anybody when that was an option . I am glad it has been done away with , if somebody does not have the nerve to say it , it should not be done anonymously IMO . Your suggestion was cool & got some info cleared up . I had used the X button on John's post & his signature line disappeared . I found out how to reverse that & evrything is back to normal .
